Premier League News focuses on the English Premier League and its surrounding events. In this edition, we’ll take a look at a number of headlines, including Reece James’s new long-term Chelsea contract. We’ll also look at Steven Alzate’s potential move to Championship side West Brom. In other Premier League News, Erik ten Hag promises to help Cristiano Ronaldo get back to his best at Manchester United.
Reece James signs new long-term Chelsea contract
Right-back Reece James has signed a new long-term contract with Chelsea. The deal is worth PS250,000 a week and is for five years. It also includes an option for a further twelve months. Chelsea owner Todd Boehly reportedly sees James as one of the best prospects in world football and has decided to make him a cornerstone of the club’s future.
Chelsea defender Reece James has signed a new long-term contract worth PS250,000 a week, making him one of the most highly paid defenders in club history. He joined the club at the age of six and made his first-team debut against Grimsby Town in the EFL Cup in September 2019. Since then, he has made 128 appearances for the Blues, scoring 10 goals.
Erik ten Hag vows to help Cristiano Ronaldo get back to his best at Manchester United
Erik ten Hag has pledged to give Cristiano Ronaldo time and support to get back to his best at Manchester United. The Portuguese winger is in the spotlight after missing most of the preseason tour with a family matter. The player, who cost the club PS12.8 million last summer, has made it clear that he wants to return to the M16. The coach also says he will help Ronaldo acclimatise to the style of play at Manchester United.
United have received no bids for the Portugal international. The forward has been largely absent from the starting line-up over the past two games, with the club opting for a front three of Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Elanga. However, there is a chance he will return to the starting line-up for this weekend’s game against Leicester. With Anthony Martial unable to play due to an Achilles injury, Ronaldo could make his return.
Despite all of these issues, Erik ten Hag remains confident that Ronaldo will stay at Manchester United this season. As long as he finds the right replacement, he’ll be content to stay at United. The club’s ‘not for sale’ policy will only strengthen as the transfer deadline approaches.
Nuno Tavares admits he wanted Marseille to have the option to buy him permanently from Arsenal
Nuno Tavares admits resentment at the decision by Arsenal not to include the option to buy him permanently from the French side in his loan deal. The striker moved to Marseille on a season-long loan from Arsenal last summer after struggling to find game time at the London club. But in five games for Marseille he has been named in the starting XI and has scored three goals.
The Brazilian joined the French side last summer for PS8million and made 28 appearances in the Premier League. He looked dangerous both up and down the field and was a constant threat for the Arsenal defence. However, his presence made the Gunners weaker, according to fellow Frenchman Emmanuel Petit.
Tavares’s future at Arsenal is in doubt. The club’s hierarchy have discussed sending him on a loan to gain first-team experience. While he is keen to gain experience at Marseille, he wants to keep the option open to buy him permanently if he excels.
The former Chelsea player has spent three seasons with the club and scored 52 goals in 89 appearances. However, his contract with the club has expired and he is a free agent. Nuno Tavares admits a permanent move to Marseille was his ultimate goal.
Reece James
Reece James has signed a new long-term contract with Chelsea. The new deal will keep him at the Blues until the summer of 2028. Reece has 13 caps for England and was part of their squad that reached the Euro 2020 final. Previously, Real Madrid were rumoured to be interested in the defender. Although he has only started five Premier League games this season, he has already proved to be a vital part of Thomas Tuchel’s team. In the latest Premier League news, James is expected to feature in the match against Manchester United, although there is no guarantee that he will be starting.
James’ contract at Chelsea was set to expire in 2019, so it was important for the club to secure his future for at least a few more years. Although only 22 years old, James has already shown flashes of brilliance in virtually every game. He has already scored one goal and provided one assist, as well as making three starts in the back three.
Nuno Tavares
Nuno Tavares signed for Arsenal from Benfica last summer and has made 28 appearances so far. His versatility was an important factor when he signed for the Gunners, and he impressed in his first season. The Portuguese international was the undisputed left-back for Arsenal but was injured towards the end of the season. Tavares has now joined Ligue 1 side Marseille on a season-long loan.
The player has reportedly hit out at Arsenal for not including a buy-back option in his loan deal with the club. While the club is happy to let him leave on loan, the option to buy clause will not be activated, and he will spend the remainder of the season at Marseille. However, Tavares’ season with the French club has started well and he has started well under new manager Igor Tudor.
In the past season, Nuno Tavares has played in 14 Premier League matches and has made nine appearances as a substitute. He has also featured in five games in the Carabao Cup and once in the FA Cup.
Erik ten Hag
Erik ten Hag has been a topic of conversation in recent days, after Manchester United lost 2-1 to Brighton on Saturday. The Dutchman has praised his team’s response to that defeat, as well as the improvements they made on the ball in the second half. He has also praised the source of Brighton’s goal.
However, Manchester United fans are unimpressed with the new manager. Since his appointment, the club have only signed three new players, down from the five promised by transfer chiefs two weeks ago. Despite the influx of new faces, United are already several players short of where they finished last season.
